    Lake Ruth is a lake worth visiting. This lake is so wonderful. You'll find a gorgeous lake called Little Caroline Lake near Lake Ruth, and Ida Creek Campground is a good campground nearby. Quality Inn & Suites is a brilliant location to get some rest, and a good site is Windy Pass. Yep, outdoors amusing stuff truly is abundant here in the Northern Cascade Range. Lakes are such calm sites, why not have a look at Lake Victoria next to Lake Ruth, and don't forget  
   to take a delightful little journey to Bob Creek.
If you want a pleasant time in the great outdoors just come on up to the Northern Cascade Range. Go for a hike on the County Line Trail, and if you don't mind getting drenched, you can always go whitewater paddling on Icicle Creek. Lake Ruth is located in the Northern Cascade Range. Not sufficient hours in a day to enjoy this site. Going for a hike on the Icicle Trail is always a great adventure, and the
 
               sight of picturesque Cashmere Mountain is pleasant.
This lake is so wonderful. Lake Ruth is a nice site to visit for more than one day, Eightmile Lake Campground is a nice site to camp nearby, and Icicle Creek is a great whitewater spot nearby. Lake Ruth gets a great deal of water; during the month of January you get the most snow around here, and the driest month is July. Through the summertime, highs typically are in the 60's at Lake Ruth with night lows in the 40's. High temperatures during the winter are normally in the 20's, and through the dark hours in the winter at Lake Ruth temperatures dip to the 10's.
Good hiking is available along the Snow Lakes Trail, and a delightful close by hotel is Best Western Icicle Inn. The fine people of Ellensburg like to hang out close by.

Toketie Lake
I liked the little lake.  I went straight up the canyon side from the last place the Snow Lakes trail comes near the creek, a little above the gully that comes down from Toketie.  There is a puzzle at the top where the gully turns south 1/4 M from the lake.  I climbed a small cliff there, could find no other way.  The lake was pretty. Total distance about 3 miles one way....This is hystericcal. <.....> The short route is 7 or so miles and a 4000ft+ of elevation gain on a ''trail'' that is a more of a climbers path that most climbers avoid. Rat Creek is a season creek that drops 6000ft in 2 miles though loose overgrown terrain. The area is incredibly beutiful but take my advice and stay on maintained trails unless you know what your doing....

Tucquala Lake

This ''Lake'' Is Beautiful. It really isn't a lake at all, in the summer it is a widening of the river. Very slow moving river, more like a slough, it is very clean, clear, and cold, mountain runoff. The fishing is excellent from a small boat or float tube, although the current can be somewhat strong. I fly fished, using a #14 Adams, and caught 11 rainbow and cutthroat trout between 6 & 11'', in the early to mid evening. This was in July of 2008. Camping was good, small sites along the main road. Keep your food in the cars though as Bears are definitely out....

Napeequa Crossing Campground
16 miles away
Well, most of the information in this little blurb is wrong: The nearest Metro area is not Ellensburg, it is Leavenworth. Lake Elsley? I have never heard of it, and have been in the area for 30 years. There is no such place called Indian Ponds anywhere around the campground. Though a beautiful hike, Napeequa Crossing to Twin Lakes is not an easy stroll, it is approximately 3.2+ miles one way, with many switchbacks, and to the average city person, a hard slog. This Article makes it sound like White river falls are on the way to Twin Lakes, which they are not. They are reached by driving on up the valley 5 more miles or so to the correct turnout. Also, it should be mentioned that from the beginning of camping season till Mid August, you should slather yourself in Bug repellant to keep from being eaten alive by Mosquitoes. The campground is located on the confluence of the White and Napeequa Rivers, which flow into Lake Wenatchee....
